19、s. 3 Terms and definitions For the purposes of this document, the following term and definition applies. 3.1 slip resistance calculated value from the reduction of the height of rise of a pendulum as a result of the friction between the profile and sports surface using correction factors 4 Principle
20、 A free falling weight covered with a rubber or plastic shoe profile (studded or smooth) rotates around a horizontal axis (pendulum). During its circular course, the profile is dragged over the sports surface and is slowed down by the friction between the shoe profile and the test surface. 5 Apparat
21、us 5.1 Slip resistance tester (see Figure 1), comprising: pendulum, having a length (axis to shoe profile) of 340 mm 3 mm; falling weight, having a mass of 1 600 g 50 g (including pendulum arm, metal profile holder and shoe profile); profile holder, with a sharp pointer to adjust the pressure on the
22、 profile; spring, having a K-value of 0,8 N/mm 0,05 N/mm, to adjust the pressure of the shoe profile on the test piece; frame equipped with a device to hold the pendulum horizontal prior to the start of the test and to release the pendulum at the start of the test; scale, with a pointer that records
23、 the maximum value achieved. On the lower part of the frame there shall be three grooves, A1 and A2 for use when adjusting the pendulum and B (see Figure 2), at which the pendulum stops when calibrated using the calibration surface. There shall be a further groove, C (see Figure 3), on the lower par

35、libration of the apparatus Install the smooth standard shoe profile (5.2.1) in the metal profile holder. Place the apparatus on the calibration surface (5.2.4) and adjust it so that it is level, checked using a spirit level. Lower or lift the pendulum until it touches the calibration surface with th
36、e needle lifter on the pendulum straight and opposite grooves A1 and A2 (see Figure 2). Position the pendulum horizontally on the point of support. Release the pendulum. Finalize the calibration by adjusting the tension of the spring on the pendulum such that the pendulum stops with the needle lifte

Place the apparatus on the test piece and adjust it so that it is level, checked using a spirit level. Mount the relevant
38、test sole as specified in 5.2 on the metal profile holder. Position the pendulum vertically. Lower the apparatus onto the test piece with the screws until the pendulum has been put under such a pressure that the sharp side on the back of the metal profile holder is opposite groove C (see Figure 3) o
39、n the lower part of the pendulum (this is at a force of 40 N 0,5 N). Place the pendulum horizontally on the point of support. Place the needle opposite the value 100 on the scale. Release the pendulum. With the movement of the pendulum the needle will be lifted and will come to rest opposite a value
40、 on the scale. Record this value. Repeat the measurement five times on different parts of the test piece and calculate the mean scale value. 8 Calculation and expression of results Calculate the slip resistance using the following equation: 100rvS= where S is the slip resistance v is the mean scale
